The Princess of Wales shared a poignant reaction when questioned about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s daughter, Princess Lilibet, revealing the strained dynamics within the royal family.

Princess Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor was born on June 4, 2021, at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in California. Her arrival came a year after Prince Harry and Meghan stepped down as senior members of the royal family and relocated to the United States.

Tensions Following Royal Exit

Following their move, Harry and Meghan took part in a high-profile interview with Oprah Winfrey, during which they made numerous claims about the treatment they faced from the royal institution and the media, particularly Meghan. Among the revelations was Meghan’s statement that Kate had made her cry in the days leading up to the royal wedding due to disagreements over bridesmaids’ dresses.

“A few days before the wedding [Kate] was upset about the flower girl dresses and it made me cry,” Meghan stated, noting that Kate later apologized.

Meghan also opened up about her mental health struggles during that period, saying: “When I joined that family, that was the last time until we came here that I saw my passport, my driver’s licence, my keys, all that gets turned over.” She went on to say her mental health had become so fragile she “didn’t want to be alive any more.”
